INVALID MULTIBYTE CHAR (US-ASCII)

-

I was playing with Couchbase and plain Ruby in my Terminal. Then I got the error message:

invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII)

or

Message from application: /www/pro_edgudri_lv/app/models/plans_modification.rb:7: invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII)

/www/pro_edgudri_lv/app/models/plans_modification.rb:7: invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII)

/www/pro_edgudri_lv/app/models/plans_modification.rb:7: syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting keyword_end

..._change, :message => "nevar būt tukšs"

...                               ^ (SyntaxError)



If you got this error, you know that this is a result of having special chars. To fix this, you have to add a ‘magic comment’ in the script.


Here is a step-by-step instruction how to solve this problem:
1. Open your file
2. go to the VERY FIRST line of your code
3. write the following at the top of your file


#!/bin/env ruby
# encoding: utf-8


Example :-

payment_controller.rb:-


# encoding: utf-8
class PaymentsController < ApplicationController


end

Uploading Files to S3 in Ruby with Paperclip Paperclip requires the following gems added to your Gemfile. If your paperclip version is 5.1.0 then we are using 'aws-sdk' version 2.3.# Gemfile
gem 'paperclip'

gem 'aws-sdk', '< 2.0'

Run bundle install and restart the Rails server after modifying the Gemfile. Then run the command :-rails generate paperclip user image Define the file attribute in the Modelclass User < ActiveRecord::Base
    has_attached_file :image, styles: { medium: "300x300>", thumb: "100x100>" }, default_url: "/images/:style/missing.png"
